/vr/ - Retro Games

4 controllers

Since half the worthwile games on n64 were made by Rare, and since those will most likely not be available on the n64 classic because of copyright stuff, it kinda doesn't make sense to even produce one in the first place.

It will probably have just the ones released on wii/wiiu VC.

>>4271385

But nintenbabbies told me N64 was an amazing system that had more than just Nintendo and Rare games.

>>4271374
>what lineup would you like to see in a N64 classic system?
the whole nintendo library - nes, snes and 64

not some picky crap

>>4271385
The only worthwhile games I'm seeing there are Goldeneye and Killer Instinct.

I would like to see a good controller

>>4271385
Nintendo could strike a deal with MS regarding the Rare licenses.

It would kind of be an oxymoron as the SNES was the last "classic" system by Nintendo. That's not to say the N64 didn't have its fair share of good games.

>>4271374
This thing would be EXPONENTIALLY more expensive to produce, emulating the cpu and replicating the controllers are a considerably more complex than the NES and SNES.

>>4271374
Banjo Tooie & Conker's
The only games i couldn't play on emulator, or just the beginning before it crash

>>4271453
idiots were paying 200+ for NES classics on ebay so i dont think there is a shortage of morons who would shell out big money for an N64.

>>4271374
1. Mario 64
2. Pilotwings 64
3. Mario Kart 64
4. Mischief Makers
5. Star Fox
6. Ocarina of Time
7. Majoras Mask
8. Star Wars Shadows of the Empire
9. Pokemon Snap
10. F Zero X
11. Waverace
12. Yoshis story
13. Paper Mario
14. Smash bros
15. Sin and Punishment
NES classic - 30 games
SNES classic - 20 games
N64 classic 15 games?
Rare Games would be needed if more than 15
Honorable mentions: Snowboard Kids, Turok, SF Rush, Bomberman games... but lets not kid ourselves. This list is noticeably empty without Killer Instinct, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Conker, Jet Force Gemini etc.

>>4271443
sure then the n64 mini will cost like $200

>>4271453
why would a cpu with 20 year old processing power be expensive?

>>4271374
mario part 1 to 3
smash bros
goldeneye
pd
bomberman
f zero
mario kart

these are essential

Would be neat to see GoldFinger 64 on there.

Holy shit that n64 is melting on his hand

>>4271501
If only it had all N64 games on it
Would be fair

>>4271453
It wouldn't be at all. The NES mini (and likely SNES) are just off the shelf single-board computers running emulators. Ninty already has multiple in-house N64 emulators too.

If they had actually emulated the CPU via FPGA that would have been impressive and a real reason to get one. As it stands they're not anything more special than those shitty Chinese gamestation boxes you see all over ebay.

A single good game.

>>4271374
>N64 Classic
>Not modifying an Original Xbox to play your N64 games with.

Who cares, what I really want is them not running like ass.

Goldeneye will never happen due do it being a 007 licence.

Anyone whose thinking about putting any Rare game on your list, just stop, because it's not gonna happen.
Hell I'm still not at all convinced an N64 Classic will ever happen.

>>4271940
What about a GB classic?

>>4271940
there is always dk64

>>4271470
Goldeneye, No Mercy, as well.
Those 2 are a bit of a stretch.

>>4271953
That would be fucking sweet, to have an GB repro with pre-loaded games, a rechargeable battery, and maybe even a back-lit screen too. it's such a great idea that once again I don't think Nintendo will go for it.

>>4271819

My friend modded mine almost ten years ago. I never understood why anyone who was interested in retro gaming did anything different. It's hooked up to a WEGA and looks great.

>>4271374
which good games had the 64 besides goldneye?

>>4271940
>it gets a rare game
>it's mickey's speedway usa

take a good look of the virtual console titles of 64 on wii/U. Thats the best its going to get.

>>4271385
This. If you give any fucks you'll drop your balls and buy an actual N64

>>4271385
I'm pretty sure nintendo is allowed to include dk64. At least it's on the eshop.

>>4272043
Yeah, because the actual IP belongs to Nintendo. But Rare originals like Banjo-Kazooie, forget about it.

>>4271385
I'm pretty sure nintendo is allowed to include dk64. At least it's on the eshop.

Here's my little collection of games I think have the most reasonable chance of being included, with just one or two wishful thinking entries.

>>4272072
>mystical ninja
>diddy kong
>castlevania
>tetrisphere
>dr mario
They are not and have been noton virtual console so those wont be included.

>>4272081
How many games on the Mini Famicom and Mini Sufami were not available in the virtual console?

>>4272081
Star Fox 2 hasn't been on the virtual console before. What's your point? (^:

>>4271374
It needs an exclusive feature like the SNES classic.
SNES classic has complete Star Fox 2, so N64 classic should have 64DD games.

>>4271374
>nes comes w 30 games
>snes has 22
This will have only 10

>>4272158
>Earthbound 64

>>4272163
Are there even 10 good first-party N64 games?

>>4272168
Nah, that game was probably cancelled before development was complete.

Is this an obvious choice for a third party game?

make it happen

>>4272195

F-Zero X With the expansion ki

>>4271504
It's one of the worst designed processors ever, in hindsight. That's also why the emulation is super bad comparatively.

Would you want to pay money to manufacture golden turds?

>>4272195
>MP3
>No MP2

Yet again I just take solace in having over 100 NES and over 100 SNES games running on emulator channels on my Wii. I still can't understand why people would want to invest in the NES and SNES classic.

N64, maybe, if only because emulation continues to be hit-and-miss to this day. I'm still waiting for VBA GX to get an update improving some of its performance issues on the Wii. Everything works great on VBA for PC iirc, some games just have issues with framerates and slowdown on GX.

>>4271819
>Not modifying an Original Xbox to play your N64 games with.
Nope.jpg

>>4271385
all of those games are overrated desu

>>4272158
This. It would be a perfect opportunity to show what 64DD games would have been like

1: Castlevania 64
2: Gex 64: Enter the Gecko
3: WWF: No Mercy
4: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3
5: Glover
6: Space Station Silicone Valley
7: Hybrid Heaven
8: Hot Wheels: Turbo Racing
9: Destruction Derby 64
10: Buck Bumble
11: Army Men: Sarge's Heroes
12: Yoshi's Story
13: Beetle Adventure Racing
14: Extreme-G
15: Super Mario 64

>>4271385
>no blast processing
>nogaemz even in the late 90s
When will Nintendumbs learn?

>>4272998
Did you make that list with a RNG? The /vr/ gauntlet, perhaps?

>>4273117
Let me try that:
1. Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six
2. Rocket - Robot on Wheels
3. Turok - Rage Wars
4. Monster Truck Madness 64
5. Rugrats in Paris - The Movie
6. Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey '98
7. Transformers - Beast Wars Transmetals
8. Big Mountain 2000
9. Deadly Arts
10. GT64 - Championship Edition
11. Namco Museum 64
12. Bust-A-Move 2 - Arcade Edition
13. Olympic Hockey Nagano '98
14. Violence Killer - Turok New Generation
15. NBA in the Zone '99

>>4271385
you could slap m64 and oot on it and it would outsell the nes mini

1. Harvest Moon

End of list.

>no 4 controller ports for complete multiplayer
>no Rare games and even if Nintendo did strike a deal with them we still wouldn't get Conker because that would raise the system's rating to an M
>no crazy color variants
>lmao but here, we'll give you OOT for the 600th time
An N64 Classic would be an absolute disaster.

>>4271459

I emulate, but some people reasonably see emulation as stealing and therefore niggerdom.

They may also have enough money to where the time it takes them to figure out emulation and get it working is worth more than $200.

Doesn't NES Mini has retroarch and a way to install more games to the system?

>>4272195

>>4271374
It's gotta have megaman 64

>>4272805
Yes because everyone would gobble up those golden turds and I'd make mad cash.

>>4271432
But Prefect Dark was basically Goldeneye with better everything and without a movie tie-in.

>>4271374
>>4271470
>>4271385
They could easily get at least 40 if they tried.

1. Kirby 64 The Crystal Shards
2. Hyrbid Heaven
3. Doom 64
4. Harvest Moon 64
5. Fighter's Destiny 2
6. Hey You Pikachu
7. Megaman 64
8. F Zero X
9. Mario Golf
10. Mario Tennis
11. Mario Party
12. Mario Kart 64
13. Ocarina of Time
14. Super Smash Brothers
15. Mischief Makers
16. Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon
17. Ogre Battle 64
18. Super Mario 64
19. Paper Mario
20. Pilotwings 64
21. Pokémon Snap
22. Rakuga Kids
23. Rayman 2: The Great Escape

36. Turok 2
37. Vigilante 8
38. Wave Race 64
39. Win Back
40. Yoshi's Story

As long as Mario Party 2 is on there with four controllers I’m good

nothing because it'll never fucking exist

>>4274038
>Hey You Pikachu

what is wrong with you

They need to crack their vault of stashed away stuff like with Star Fox 2. Have them release the 90% done Mother 64 or OoT Gaiden.

>>4271374
Only if I can load roms onto it and it played them without bugs. Otherwise, no.

>>4274714
OoT Gaiden never existed.

>>4274819
You don't know that, only Nintendo knows.

>>4271374
my list includes games from rare. i don't know the likelihood they're appear, probably low, but a boy can dream.
1. super mario 64
2. ocarina of time
3. majora's mask
4. ogre battle 64
5. mario party 3
6. star fox 64
7. f zero x
8. shadows of the empire
9. rogue squadron
10. smash
11. harvest moon
12. paper mario
13. castlevania 64
14. yoshi's story
15. resident evil 2
16. doom 64
17. mario kart 64
18. kirby 64
19. hybrid heaven
20. bomberman 64
21. starcraft 64
...
22. conker
23. perfect dark
24. goldeneye
25. banjo kazooie

A realistic line-up would be this one, I doubt Nintendo would be willing to dig too much into the library for a cheap plug and play console since people will buy it anyways.

>>4271432
It amazes me how quickly /vr/ got cancered up.

>>4274038

Quite a good selection of games anon

2. Hyrbid Heaven
4. Harvest Moon 64
15. Mischief Makers
16. Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon
22. Rakuga Kids
23. Rayman 2: The Great Escape
26. Rocket: Robot on Wheels
27. Goemon's Great Adventure
24. Ridge Racer 64

Since Nintendo is in good terms with Konami, Bamco and Ubisoft these ones seem very plausible

6. Hey You Pikachu
It needs an accesory so I don't think it's happening

5. Fighter's Destiny 2
39. Win Back
34. Star Wars: Rogue Squadron
35. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3
These ones belong to defunt publishers, have complicated copyright or license issues or are outright dead IPs so those are less likely to appear in a plug and play console

36. Turok 2
I think it's more probable the remaster gets ported to the Switch since it's already on the Xbox One

But let's be honest they are not going overboard with this if they ever make it I bet I'll have 20 like the SNES Mini

>>4275192
Isn't there licensing issues with Harvest Moon? Honestly, I'd rather have the original Japanese Animal Crossing anyway.

>>4275234
Isn't rocket property of sucker punch?
I would replace it with Castlevania 64/LoD or ISS64/2000.
But being realistic it would be this one
>>4275192
with maybe Cruis'n usa or Bomberman Hero.

>>4271374
>Zelda OOT and MM
>Banjo Kazooie
>Goldeneye
>Mario 64
>MAYBE perfect dark

that's it, it would be shit

I hope for nintendo's sake that they stop with the retro consoles at the SNES. N64 and GC would not sell like at all.

>>4271374
>no Rare
>no sports licenses
>no movie licenses
>no wrestling licenses

There goes half the fucking popular games. Literally NO ONE would buy this thing. It'd have to have literally EVER first party Nintendo title for it to have any commercial potential.

>>4271395
Midway was fucking AMAZING on N64. It was an excellent system for Nintendo, Rare, Midway, FPSes in general, racing in general, and wrestling in general. But that was about it.

>>4275626
i think the N64 would sell at least decently. it has a pretty well defined library of only about 20-30 "essential" or "classic" games, and presumably most of those would be on the console, all in one place. that's an attractive option for many people, considering a lot of those games are crazy expensive currently, and prices are only going to go up if no retro console comes out. only problem is, almost half of those games would be third party, so i don't know how many nintendo could get ahold of.
i think after the potential n64, it should stop though. i don't think the gamecube is retro enough in the minds of the masses to have kitschy appeal the cartridge-based systems have, also most games are way easier to get ahold of.

>>4275631
People frequently underrate the N64 third party library. For example, nobody with taste can dismiss World Driver Championship as a very competent Gran Turismo clone that does a few of its own cool things.

>>4271970
There's the GB Boy Colour, you can get one off of Ebay or Aliexpress.
Comes with 100 or so games: super mario land, contra, donkey kong, tennis, tetris, etc.
They cost @$30usd.

the only games they'd put on it have already been released a million times already. even if you don't emulate, OOT/MM alone have already been rereleased on every nintendo console from the gamecube onwards. anyone who wants to play those games has surely played them by now and the ones people really want to play have no chance of being put on this thing because nintendo is insanely jewish and won't bargain with rare.

>>4271432
Those are like the worst two games in that entire image.

>>4271374

what's the point? all the games worth having are already on the virtual console or have remakes.

NES made sense due to a metric ton of 2 player games. SNES and N64 not so much.

>>4275631

this, licencing hell and dealing with abandonwear has never been nintendo's style.

plus playing ancient sport or driving games makes no sense because new iterations already do eveything better.

>>4276098
>>4276104
In terms of memory capacity, wouldn't the constraints to store 15+ games impact the price highly ?

>>4276123

flash memory is cheap, however emulating every N64 is still a pain in the ass.

>>4271432
nigga DKR >>> MK64

Virtual Pro Wrestling 2, since the other AKI wrestling games have WWE licensing, or Chris Benoit.

>>4272158
How about a Final Fantasy between 6 & 7

You can emulate an NES or SNES on a thermostat with an LCD display. Now the N64 is a lot more tricky, if they made a proper N64 Mini, then I'd actually be a lot more down to buy it...

How long until the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance and DS Mini? You know Nintendo is making a killing on every one of these things sold?

not like it'll matter anyway they'll still only make 10 fucking units.
